Subject:Re[2]: Spacing after a period... From:Stacey Marner <marners -at- CORSAIR -dot- MANTECH-WVA -dot- COM> Date:Wed, 2 Jul 1997 10:26:29 EST
I have a friend who said that in the book _The Mac Is Not a
Typewriter_ it affirms that two spaces is correct form. It also
states that, at least on a MacIntosh, the computer automatically
doubles the space after a period. I don't work with a MacIntosh so I
don't know if that's true. It certainly doesn't seem to be true with
my machine and I'm using Word 6.0. Anybody?
